[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] Those skilled in the art will understand that although some embodiments herein include certain features included in other embodiments but not others, combinations of features from different embodiments are intended to be within the scope of this invention and form different embodiments. For example, in the claims, any of the claimed embodiments can be used in any combination.

[0029] The following is a reference to the appendix. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 This invention describes an adjustable pipe welding track that can adapt to various pipe diameters.

[0030] To address the problems of poor track adaptability in existing rail welding trolleys, which prevent them from handling multi-diameter pipes and result in low efficiency and high costs, this embodiment provides an adjustable pipe welding track that can adapt to various pipe diameters. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the adjustable pipe welding track that can adapt to various pipe diameters, as shown in this embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the pipe welding track includes a transition track 3 and a connecting track 2. The transition track 3 and the connecting track 2 are connected by a locking member 1 to form a circular closed pipe. The connecting track 2 and the transition track 3 are provided with multiple equally spaced mounting holes. The locking member 1 locks the transition track 3 and the connecting track 2 through the mounting holes. By adjusting the overlap between the connecting track 2 and the transition track 3, the size of the circular closed pipe of the transition track 3 and the connecting track 2 can be adjusted.

[0031] This pipe welding track allows for flexible adjustment of the diameter of a circular closed pipe by adjusting the overlap between the connecting track 2 and the transition track 3, thus adapting to the welding needs of pipes with different diameters. It has advantages such as strong adaptability, low cost, and high efficiency. In addition, during operation, workers do not need to customize special tracks for pipes of different diameters, which significantly reduces production costs and inventory pressure and improves the versatility of the equipment.

[0032] Figure 2 This is a top view of the adjustable pipe welding track that can accommodate various pipe diameters according to this embodiment; Figure 3 for Figure 2 A magnified view of a section at point A in the middle; Figure 4 for Figure 2 A magnified view of a section at point B.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the connecting track 2 includes a first track 21 and a second track 22. One end of the first track 21 and the second track 22 are respectively locked to both ends of the transition track 3 by locking member 1, and the other end is connected to each other by locking assembly 5.

[0034] Understandably, the first track 21 and the second track 22 overlap with the transition track 3 to form a circular closed pipe. Depending on the pipe diameter requirements, the diameter of the circular main body can be changed by adjusting the overlap length between the first track 21, the second track 22, and the transition track 3. When the overlap length increases, the diameter of the annular main body decreases accordingly; conversely, when the overlap length decreases, the diameter of the annular main body increases. This design makes the piping system highly flexible and adaptable, capable of meeting the diverse needs of various engineering applications.

[0035] Optionally, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both the first track 21 and the second track 22 are arc-shaped structures, and the size of their arcs is the midpoint of the overall adjustment range of the pipe welding track, which facilitates the adaptation to different pipe diameters and reduces the deformation of the first track 21, the second track 22, and the transition track 3. The first track 21 and the second track 22 are respectively overlapped on the outer surface of the transition track 3 and are respectively fixed with locking parts 1, so that they are in a tight fit after installation.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking assembly 5 includes a connecting seat 51, and two connecting seats 51 are provided, which are respectively provided at the ends of the first track 21 and the second track 22 away from the connecting track 2. The locking assembly 5 also includes a locking component 5, which is used to close the first track 21 and the second track 22 through the connecting seats 51.

[0037] Specifically, the locking assembly 5 includes a bolt 52 and a nut 53. The bolt 52 passes through the connecting seat 51 and the connecting rail 2 and is threadedly connected to the nut 53.

[0038] The connecting track 2 is divided into a first track 21 and a second track 22, which are modularly assembled through locking component 1 and locking assembly 5. The locking assembly 5 uses bolts 52 and nuts 53, which are simple and reliable in structure and easy to disassemble and adjust quickly. The above structure can simplify the installation process and reduce tool dependence in actual operation, and is suitable for rapid deployment and adjustment on site.

[0039] Furthermore, the mounting hole of the transition track 3 is a strip-shaped hole, which allows the locking member 1 to slide within the strip-shaped hole to achieve continuous adjustment, thereby providing a more precise pipe diameter adaptation capability and avoiding the adjustment limitations caused by the fixed hole position. In addition, the strip-shaped hole can adapt to the positional difference between the transition track 3 and the mounting holes of the first track 21 and the second track 22 when the overlap length is different, reducing installation errors.

[0040] Furthermore, the adjustable pipe welding track, adaptable to various pipe diameters, also includes pads. These pads are placed on the inner side of the pipe welding track to increase friction. The connecting track 2 is installed on the inner or outer wall of the transition track 3. The addition of pads on the inner side increases the friction between the track and the pipe, preventing track slippage during welding. The connecting track 2 can be installed on the inner or outer wall of the transition track 3, and with pads of different thicknesses, it can adapt to different pipe wall thicknesses and installation space limitations, expanding application scenarios.

[0041] Furthermore, the spacers are a first spacer 41 and a second spacer 42, and the thickness difference between the first spacer 41 and the second spacer 42 is equal to the thickness of the transition track 3. The spacers are divided into a first spacer 41 and a second spacer 42, and the thickness difference matches the track thickness to ensure uniform adhesion between the inner and outer walls of the track.

[0042] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the thickness of the first pad 41 is greater than that of the second pad 42. The connecting rail 2 is installed on the outer wall of the transition rail 3, the first pad 41 is installed on the inner side of the connecting rail 2, and the second pad 42 is installed on the inner side of the transition rail 3.

[0043] Specifically, the first pad 41 and the second pad 42 are both installed in the mounting holes inside the pipe welding track through the locking member 1. The first pad 41 and the second pad 42 are centrally symmetrically distributed within the pipe welding track. The centrally symmetrical distribution of the pads balances the force and avoids eccentric vibration.

[0044] Furthermore, both the first pad 41 and the second pad 42 are threaded on the side facing the center of the circular closed pipe. The threading of the pads on the side facing the center of the pipe further increases the frictional resistance, which is especially suitable for smooth pipe surfaces or inclined working conditions, and prevents the track from shifting due to vibration or gravity.

[0045] It should be noted that the first track 21, the second track 22, and the transition track 3 can be designed with side openings or other means to allow the welding carriage to move. Gears should be used at the bottom of the welding carriage to mesh with the side openings of the first track 21, the second track 22, and the transition track 3 to complete the movement. These openings are typically designed as precise circles or squares to facilitate smooth gear meshing and reduce friction and wear. The track surfaces are finely polished to ensure smoothness, thereby improving the moving efficiency of the welding carriage.

[0046] In this embodiment, the first pad 41 and the second pad 42 can be installed as evenly as possible according to actual usage. The pad mounting holes of the first track 21, the second track 22, and the transition track 3 are symmetrically centered. This ensures that the center of gravity is as close to the center position as possible after the pads are installed, that the force-bearing surface between the track and the pipe is uniform after installation, that the track is circular overall, and that the stability of the trolley is improved when passing through. The pads are made of high-strength materials, which have good compressive strength and durability, and can effectively support the track and distribute pressure to prevent track deformation. In addition, the surface of the pads is specially treated to increase the coefficient of friction, further improving the stability and safety of the track.

[0047] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
